In The Mood For 'Wholesome' Food? Generation Park Has The Answer

The brand putting the "wholesome" in food is launching in Lake Houston. 

Wholesome Kitchen and Wholesome Pies are opening a joint-restaurant concept at 250 Assay St. in Generation Park, according to a press release. The grand opening is June 6. 

Wholesome Kitchen's menu will include entrees like pan-seared salmon, grilled pork chops, spaghetti carbonara, appetizers such as Asian sticky ribs and fresh burrata, as well as gluten-free options, vegetarian dishes and seasonal soups and salads. It will also include a full bar. 

Wholesome Pies will serve made-to-order thin crust Neapolitan pizzas in a custom-made, wood-fired 900-degree oven. Featured pies include the Margherita — made with mozzarella, basil, olive oil and tomato sauce; the Honey Bee — made with honey, chili oil, mozzarella, basil and tomato sauce; the Meaty Pie — made with pork sausage, meatballs, soppressata, pecorino, mozzarella and tomato sauce; and Classic Pepperoni — made with mozzarella, pepperoni, cheddar and tomato sauce. It will offer a seasonal menu with fresh ingredients and a full bar as well. 

“Both concepts offer something for every taste. From Citrus Kale Salad to Beet Hummus or my personal favorite, bone-in ribeye at Wholesome Kitchen, our concepts are focused on bringing people together for any occasion,” Chef Theyen Hoang, who is the creator and executive chef of both concepts, said in a release.

Michael Collins is the owner and operator of Wholesome Restaurant Group, which includes Wholesome Kitchen and Wholesome Pies. He is also behind other popular Inner Loop destinations like The Fish in Midtown.
